Legal Rebels Podcast w/trailblazers

Like Laurence I’m a little biased. As one of the editors at the ABA Journal I’m delighted to see this project underway. It adds a dimension to our popular Legal Rebels project and gives us a platform to deepen the discussion with innovators and trailblazers in the legal profession.

Paperless law office--interesting

Terry Carter does a great job dissecting how to dive in to the paperless lawyer's world. Very solid info here. Our office "went paperless" as to our new files, and left all existing paper files as is. That way we didn't freak out. Svenson has really good advice on how to get started. Perfect lawyer topic.

Producer’s Review

I am the producer and so (admittedly) I am a little biased. That said, this is an exciting project because it presents the opportunity to work with the legal industry’s most innovative minds. If you are a practicing attorney, interested in access to justice, or want to learn more about the future of legal practice… this show is for you. Driven by the high standards set at the ABA Journal, listeners can be sure to get a lot out of each episode.
